BJ Penn vs. Diego Sanchez to headline UFC 105 Friday August 21, 2009 BY Matt Holmes According to a report from InsideFights.com, BJ Penn is set to defend his UFC Lightweight title against Diego Sanchez at UFC 105 in Manchester on November 14. Many believed “The Prodigy” would not fight on UK shores again after being unhappy with the purse he received following his win against Joe Stevenson at UFC 80 in January 2008, however a fight against Sanchez would boost his profile in the US as it is being shown for free on Spike TV. Diego Sanchez is also no stranger to UK shores after making his lightweight debut against Joe Stevenson at UFC 95 in London in February 2009. On that occasion he picked up a fight of the night bonus as well as a victory by unanimous decision. However, it was his war against Clay Guida at the Ultimate Fighter season 9 finale that propelled him to number one contender status; “The Nightmare” earning the win by split decision in a fight of the year contender. UPDATE: Penn has confirmed the fight to iFight365.com via his Twitter page. I said to him that I thought the fight would be a war when it takes place in Manchester. His response was simply: “Yup. Its gonna be good.” Be sure to check back to ifight365.com for further updates. Matt Holmes matt@ifight365.com http://www.ifight365.com/2009/08/bj-pen ... e-ufc-105/ |

Same, I got my money on Penn. At 155 you just cant bet against him. But got to give Diego his props he is a warrior wont be easy for Penn. |
